After shooting their class reunion photo, I got to watch the Fightin Texas Aggie Class of '68 run through some yells today... I will graduate exactly 50 years after these Ags! Definitely a moment I'll never forget!
I think all of the following can be true of Wyndham:
-his apology for the locker thing came way late
-It didn't seem particularly sincere at first
-He has tried to say it several different ways now
-He's a bit awkward in his delivery
-It's also been discussed ad nauseum by now
-Throwing a driver through a T-Mobile sign was also bad
-He seems to be trying to mature & grow up
-He's a really good golfer overall
-You don't have to like him; it's good to have villains
-The USA hockey jersey thing was good-natured trolling
-Two U.S. Opens, having beaten two generational talents like Rory and Scottie, would be really impressive
-You aren't obligated to buy into anyone's redemption arc, you can dislike whomever you want, that's sports
Two years and one day after suffering a broken ankle during a Super Regional game while playing with Texas A&M, Braden Montgomery hit a walk-off home run in his MLB debut 🔥
I am tapping out after 113 holes 🫡
1 birdie (the literal first hole @BrendanPorath saw — #110)
One Coca-Cola
Game Within a Game: +96! A blowout, somehow!
Thank you to everyone for the support. I had a blast. I will probably not play golf again for a long time now.
So much valuable shit is disappearing from the internet. The benign explanation is someone looks at an Excel sheet & decides they don't want to pay for the server space. The more cynical explanation is powerful people would like it to go away so they can write their own history.
I've been in conversation this morning with the PGA of America's in-app A.I. chatbot on a number of topics facing the golf world. I'd describe the talks as "productive."
